In October 2013, SaskTel also received the distinction of being named one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers for 2014 for the 14th consecutive year, and remains the only Saskatchewan company that has been recognized every year since the inception of the competition.

“We are extremely pleased to see SaskTel again named one of Saskatchewan’s top employers,” said Don McMorris, Minister Responsible for SaskTel. “Great companies like this that offer their employees more than just a job is another reason why more and more people continue to choose Saskatchewan as the ideal place to live and work.”
